Get comfortable.
Pull your attention inwards.
Close your eyes and rest your hands in your hands.
Check in with your breath and let your energy slowly fall from your head.
Feel all your thoughts settling like confetti and your energy sinking down,
Down into your belly.
It's been an overload of information over the past eight weeks and we've been in our heads a lot.
So just let your breath fill your entire chest cavity.
Let it fill you all the way down to your feet as if you were filling a long,
Thin balloon.
Then let it connect down into the earth.
Picture yourself sitting near a waterfall.
Imagine you're letting the water wash over you as you offer up any residual beliefs about your ability to write,
Whether your book is valuable,
Whether you have talent or whether you will have readers.
Offer all of these to the water.
You feel the water cleaning away all these self doubts and clearing every pore of your skin,
Every cell of your being.
You inhale and have a sense of how much creativity and understanding and skill are flowing towards you just as the water is flowing down the side of the mountain and over you.
Not only is creativity flowing towards you,
But it is pooling around you.
It is not flowing away from you.
It is protected.
It is sacred.
The earth is supporting it.
And as you stand and receive this abundance,
You feel how strongly you have invited this into your life and you know that through the actions you're taking and the shifts in your mindset that are happening to you as you've committed yourself to awaken the author inside you,
You are inviting more creativity into your life.
You're creating space inside you for your book,
For ideas,
Words,
Emotions and readers to come into your life.
Everything you're learning here is sticking with you.
It can never be lost.
Now I want you to picture a well inside your body.
It can be inside your belly,
Your womb,
Your heart,
Anywhere you can hold energy that is flowing into you.
It is your tank,
Your holding space for your book.
And as you feel the space inside your body,
I want you to connect in again with why you are writing this book.
Allow all the emotion,
Self-love,
Compassion and generosity that made you commit to the Author Awakening adventure to flow into this well inside you.
Thank the Water for supporting you.
From now on,
Every time you drink water,
Get into water,
Whether it's a bath or a shower or the ocean,
It is a reminder to you of the creative abundance in your life,
The flow that works through you.
Take another breath and acknowledge yourself for all the learning,
Stretching and work you've done over the past eight weeks.
Recognize all your aha moments,
Even when it has felt hard or confusing or overwhelming.
Take this moment to acknowledge how much progress you've made since you first walked into the forest at the beginning of this course.
How much action you've taken,
How many words you've put on the page,
How far you have walked on this path.
Now send your love and appreciation to yourself for how far you've come,
For how much curiosity,
Conviction,
Conscientiousness,
Courage,
Connection and commitment you have displayed over the past few weeks.
Send your love and appreciation to your fellow writers,
The others who signed up to be author.
